I have noticed that precise and oneiric are kept fairly up to date but natty maverick are not. Is there a known reason for this? I ask because a friend of mine runs a natty based server of minetest and I run a precise based client. I know Ubuntu has their own "official support" lengths but some will still use older versions because the newer versions well.. suck.
